What's wrong with my science experiment?

If you used freshly made chicken broth, which had just been cooked on the stove, there were probably no living bacteria in it. They were all killed by the cooking. What you do is first make the agar by boiling the powder in water. You don't want any living bacteria to be in that. Pour it into the petri dish, cover it and allow it to gel (this will happen faster in the refrigerator, just like making Jello). Then you want to put some live bacteria onto the gelled agar. As I said, freshly cooked broth is not a good source of live bacteria. You can touch the agar with your fingers, or use a cotton swab (Q-tip) to wipe various areas like the sink drain, the bathroom floor, the inside of your mouth - areas where you know there are live bacteria. Then gently wipe the swab across the surface of the agar, cover the dish, and keep it in a warm dark place. You should have colonies of bacteria and fungi growing within 24 hours.

What should i do with my cat?

ok, well me and my boyfriend are moving out in less then 2 months and my moms moving in with her boyfriend and can't take her cat. we would take him but we have 2 cats that we have to take care of already and are low on cash. my question is what should we do with him? hes a grumpy cat hes 2 years old and bites alot. hes an outside cat so hes a little scruffy and no one would want him at a pound and i don't want him put down. i was considering craigslist but there are some weird people on there. what are some other solutions? we have no family members who can take him.

I Think I'm Bipolar...?

Ohk so, it started off by my one friend always calling me bipolar. But she jokes around a lot. But really, when I thought about...maybe she was right. I'm either uber happy and cheerful or depressed or agitated. Not that I've been diagnosed with depression, it's just what I feel like. And then, another one of my friends told me she thought I was. And she isn't the joking type. She said I act on impulses. So now I'm just kinda wondering, could it be true? Last night I got in a fight with the first friend but now I feel so stupid about it... It truly was my fault for acting so grumpy. But I totally blamed her for being so touchy... So, do you think I'm bipolar? And if you don't know can you tell me any information on it and how people get diagnosed? Really, I don't know too much about. All the sites I visited on it weren't very good. Thank you so much. :)

My fiance and I are pretty honest with each how Do I get him to lose weight?

Be honest with him. If you met him that way then you can't really complain but tell him you're worried about his health or that you want to spice up your sex life and you've noticed he doesn't initiate it like before. YOu have to be honest...We can't expect men to know what we want or what we are thinking. We need to lay it out for them. Good luck.

What is the funniest joke you ever heard, please share I NEED A GOOD LAUGH?

this is my joke from my cousin. Once there was a black,a white,and a asian. they were captured by a few knights. the knights carry them off to a castle. they lock them up in the tallest dungeon. then,they had a idea. the gods of the spirits could help them with wings. so the black went by the window,and jumped out. he said " I wish i could be a hawk!" he turned into a hawk and flew away. the white jumped out of the window and said" I wish i could be a eagle!" He turned into a eagle and flew away. so the asian was last. he didn't know a lot of english, so he said the only bird he knew: pigeon. he jumped out of the window,and said" i wish to be a pigeon!" but, for the fact he was asian,he couldn't say it correctly. so instead. he said poopgeon. he turned into poop,and landed face first,on the ground.

What bad things would happen if I dyed my hair a lighter color?

My hair is dark brownish and I want to go lighter, a lot lighter but I want to know what I am risking by lightening my hair. My end goal is a dirty blond type. If not that then what other natural colors could I experiment with?

I don't know what to do? Please help!!?

I currently have a self trained service dog who has been a huge help to me for the last few years. He has recently developed a slipped disk in his back which the vet says may always cause him problems and that might be best for him to retire and just be an inside dog. Over the last few months I can tell that he is struggling when we go out but he loves going with me anyways. I hate to see him in pain and he can't do his job as well so I think the vet may be right that he just needs to retire to be a pampered pet. Also the pain medication that he is on makes him drowsy and kind of grumpy so he doesn't do his job as well because of that. It will be very difficult for me to go back to life without a service dog. I would like to find and start training a new dog but the only problem is convincing my mom. I can be completely financially responsible for both my dog now and a new one and I can care for them both. I am an adult and I have a job but I just need to live in the same house with my mom because of my disability. She just doesn't want another dog in the house but we have plenty of room. All she would need to do is agree to let the dog live in our house. I can do the rest and I have trained dogs my whole life so behavior won't be a problem. Since I have had a service dog I have been able to be much more independent at home and out in public but for some reason my mom doesn't see how much a service dog helps me. She said I could get a new service dog when my current dog dies but that will hopefully a long time from now because he is still young and there is no way I would ever give him to another home because he has been my constant partner and friend for years. But since he can't do his job well anymore I need to start training a new dog since it takes quite a while to train one. How can I convince her to let me find another dog to start training? I was considering just starting to look for one but if I find one, I don't want her to be mad at me and not let me keep the dog. The only other thing I could do would be to move out but I really need the support of my family. Please help?
